Abstract

An automatic machine is designed for cleaning a compact disc and is formed of a housing, a motor, a transmission mechanism, a disc carrying seat, an application device, a drying device, a first lifting mechanism, a second lifting mechanism, and a control device. The motor is housed in the housing and controlled by the control device. The power of the motor is transmitted by the transmission mechanism to drive the disc carrying seat on which a compact disc to be cleaned is rotatably located. The application device is driven by the power of the motor via the transmission mechanism to rotate. The first lifting mechanism is disposed in the housing and is located between the transmission mechanism and the application device to drive the application device to move toward or away from the disc carrying seat. The second lifting mechanism is located between the transmission mechanism and the drying device for driving the drying device to move toward or away from the disc carrying seat.
